Spain’s Sports Administrative Court (TAD) upholds striker’s three-match ban “Barcelona” Robert Lewandowski reports AS.
Punishment will follow at the end of the meeting Examples Against “Osasuna” (2:1), which took place on November 8, 2022. Then the Polish footballer received two yellow cards and, leaving the field, he showed a gesture that was later considered by the Royal Spanish Football Federation ( RFEF) as disrespectful to the match referee. Barcelona tried to challenge this decision.
Previously, Spain’s Sports Administrative Court (TAD) was not involved in examining the case on the merits but previously denied the club the lifting of sanctions against the striker. Barcelona, taking advantage of this circumstance, referred the case to the Administrative Court of Madrid, which suspended the full execution of the sentence due to the “possibility of causing irreparable damage in the event of a positive TAD verdict”.
This allowed Lewandowski to play with Espanyol (1-1) on December 31. At the end of the match, the opposing team decided to challenge the legitimacy of the Polish footballer’s participation in the match. From now on, according to the verdict of the TAD, the player will miss the meetings with Atlético, Getafe and Girona.
The Catalan team’s management are expected to file a complaint against the decision.
